Dude, you are one of the most transparent and honest DJ producers on the market at the moment, your phrase says that one of your best songs was made on a laptop and with a headphone it is enough to say that you are awesome in every way, keep being like this!
Your end message is everything...especially to me. I'm 47 and have been an EDM fan forever. In my early 20s I had a Korg X2 and composed music for fun, just within the limits of that keyboard alone. Some EDM, some symphonic stuff (which I actually have uploaded to this channel), some Yanni/Kitaro ambient stuff, etc. Just having fun. Never had the drive to go farther than recreational playing, despite many friends/fam saying I should have done more with it. Fast forward to now and suddenly I have this wild fire up my ass to actually produce something I literally dreamt of after EDC Orlando, legit inspired by your set Saturday night (and the shrooms I was enjoying). Now I'm diving in, with just my home PC and gamer headphones. Nothing fancy. Steep learning curve for sure, but I've not been this excited about making music in over 25 years. So here's to having nothing but a computer and a brain, and a passion to see if I can produce a track that people will enjoy before I'm 50. That's my goal...a one hit wonder is fine by me...just for the love of the music and the smiles I want to bring people. So again...thank you James for that very important point at the end. It means more than you know.
@@Ra18To 100%. Might as well give it a shot and just see what happens. At the end of the day, if I just end up making something that I love blasting in my car, it's worth it. :)
Great Studio James. I like that you said that none of that gear matters and all you need is your laptop and your head. As somebody that is learning to produce, this gives me peace of mind
@@user-mv8vc3zt1y I was just informing for the ones who don't know. I know there are monitors that ho up to 80k for a single one and Hi-Fi for like 600.000€
I love how you're honest about things, helpful with advice for new music producers and an all round top man! Love your videos Hype even if I'm an aging Dad, your music is sick! 🙏❤
Love the studio tour man, the new studio looks sick! Also, it's good to hear that none of this really matter and it's just a laptop and and your mind that's needed to produce music.
Yo,mate that’s fk awesome! You are my inspiration . Thanks for video. Actually that’s what I thought about all this equipment,that only meters it’s your ability to think out of the box ! One more time thanks for video! Have a good gigs in the future!
You said it best, all you need is laptop and your brain to produce music. All the fancy studio stuff is a luxury, you’re 1000% right. I’ve learned so much just by watching you, whether it’s streaming production or DJing. I would love to just talk to you at length about music and just life in general. Much love always bro!
This man is sooo down to earth. Just a Video with his phone or what. Nothing special but so much more giving than anything else. He loves what he is doing and shares it, like he is one of us. Such a likeable guy.
the Behringer RD-9 looks a bit intimidating at first but it actually only takes like 5 minutes to learn how to use. I thought it would take a bit of time to learn and was surprised when it only took like 5 minutes to learn.
I really love this videos man, im working on finding my north in music and djing and all of this it really inspires me to do so, im a big fan of you an thanks for all of this content, the tutorials, the streams, the shows, the vlogs from the travels, everything becouse really Who does this? Only James Hype for me, thanks brother for everything.
Another thing I would like to remind anyone interested: It takes zero effort to notice that this video was shot rather poorly, but we all watched it to the end because the content is authentic and well-thought-out. This should come as a lesson to anyone still hesitating to make and upload their first UA-cam video.
Love your final message and the only thing I want to add is: all the extra stuff it's for get to the finish line FASTER... for example your room and monitors, you are 100% sure the song it's finished and sounds right in a second, instead of doing tons of revisions...
Cool studio James!! I'm a big fan of you❤ your sets are always on my youtube playing when I work out🙌 by the way, where do we send the demos? Do you accept any demos?
Bro those sample packs are gonna be mad! Certain sounds I’ve heard on your records which I’ve always tried finding similar ones but never the exact! Now I can 😁 Btw where can we send demos for stereohype?
I missed materials like this so much... This is why I love people who are not in TOP TOP cuz after they reach skies something is going wrong. Stay with HYPE Family, James... remember :D
That is a sexy good looking studio all around those pmc 6's thats the next monitors Im gonna upgrade to. I looked at a lot of studio monitors and my friend has atmos pmc setup and it sounds so clean just the L/C/R speakers so clean you hear so much more thats worng in a bad mix.
I remember going to my first NAMM show in 2014 PMC speakers Changed my life…first thing I played was “So far to go” by J Dilla. It was a emotional moment for me. I still have the tea cup they gave me.
Those power conditioners are badass brother, found em the other day and im upgrading to them from Pyle. Even though Pyle is used on my network gear and even servers. Always been solid but those are Cadillac of conditioners and for audio it’s a MUST! From an electrical and IT professional, you’re doing great my friend. Hope to see ya when you back in Florida again. Tampa would be dope! Much love ❤️ #RealHypeFam 🎉🫶🙏✊
The TD-3 is easy to program with the synth tool, so i suspect the 909 clone is the same.. but the Ableton 909 set is pretty close and no latency. I got a TR-8 and its easy to sync it with Serato. TR-8s supposed to be marginally harder to use, but if all you want is to kick drum everything in a mix/redrum, then I'm sure it's fine. Just program some basic patterns with synth tool on the RD-9 and sync to Serato with midi and you can technofy unexpected stuff.
You ain’t give no love to that focusrite 18i20 interface lol! That interface is soooo underrated. I love the preamps and work flow of it way better than the Apollo. My apollo 8x just sits there now
I am surprised James doesn't have any outboard compressors...i mean do yourself a favor and grab some,, and get some Yamaha NS-10's for mix reference...James we all dig you here in the US!
This has to be the best studio run through I’ve ever seen, he doesn’t set up the filming like a documentary like everyone else, he doesn’t pretend like he knows everything about everything he just tells you why he likes the setup, you can see that he’s genuinely excited about his studio, he’s like a kid on Christmas morning 🥹
Dude, you are one of the most transparent and honest DJ producers on the market at the moment, your phrase says that one of your best songs was made on a laptop and with a headphone it is enough to say that you are awesome in every way, keep being like this!
Correct on every level
What I really wanted to know about was that ceiling lighting 😅
JH - One of the most honest DJs & Producers... Thank you for being that

THank you James I enjoyed spending time with you today lol you are a cool dude
Well I wasn't thinking I hope you get my message
@@sillygoose815 I think you accidentally replied to my comment instead of to the general thread. Just wanted to let you know. 😁
Great Studio James. I like that you said that none of that gear matters and all you need is your laptop and your head. As somebody that is learning to produce, this gives me peace of mind
Love how transparent these videos have been since I subscribed, been a big inspiration for me to load up the DAW and get to work. 🙏
James … your inside view of producing is so valuable to us producers . Please keep sharing making tracks and remix’s !
Big love for this man!! As honest and thorough as you can be. inspirational as a Dj, producer and simply good dude 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
That minilogue looks insane - never seen the design like that 🔥
Your sincerity, and openness in the music is always hella refreshing, it’s cool to be able to have a look inside💯🕺🔊🔊🔥
For the people who don't know, those PMC studio monitors cost around 10.500€ each
So what? These are not the most expensive monitors
He has the 8.2's. 15k..
@@user-mv8vc3zt1y I was just informing for the ones who don't know. I know there are monitors that ho up to 80k for a single one and Hi-Fi for like 600.000€

Worth it though

Great Studio Tour and Advice!🙏🙏🔥
Love the behind the scenes and all the production videos. Helps all us James Hype wannabe's!
I LOVE the message at the end of this. It's not about what's in your collection. It's about the creativity within you.

Nice video. Thanks for the tour. Could you do a tour of what plugins are your favs?
Great message man 🙏

You don’t need all of this to make music only laptop & headphone you can make a hit!!
Facts
all this is just luxury... love that! absolute grass roots fire man!
That massage in the end is very motivational, thanks mate.
Cool studio James!! I'm a big fan of you❤ your sets are always on my youtube playing when I work out🙌 by the way, where do we send the demos? Do you accept any demos?
Great video James, thanks for the inspiration 💪🔥🙌
RD-9 I want ONE LOL But like you I don't think I'm gonna use it... LOL I learned the RD 8 to jammmm
Ableton made everything too easy. 😆
Man, once you learn that RD9 you're gonna have a ton of fun with it, they're easier to learn than you think! Nice mate for the minilogue
Big fan...keep up the great work!
Seeing you at EDCO this year truly made me realize that DJing is my path. Music is the only way that I'll be happy. Thank you.
the last part was very important message to deliver....thanks JH♥🙏
Awesome tour 🤩
What a cool tour of the studio!
James, you're the best. Always keep it real
Yess mate! 👑
Bro those sample packs are gonna be mad! Certain sounds I’ve heard on your records which I’ve always tried finding similar ones but never the exact!
Now I can 😁
Btw where can we send demos for stereohype?
tnx for sharing your thoughts! I don't like your music (i'm to old for this now haha) but i love the way you are as a person :)
James, you are the best.
Thank you, great Studio!!!
The words at the end of the video are epic and inspiring.
This is awesome to see!
Love the honesty of "Bought this, don't know how to use it" top banana mate!
I missed materials like this so much... This is why I love people who are not in TOP TOP cuz after they reach skies something is going wrong. Stay with HYPE Family, James... remember :D
"Its a steep learning curve.....and I gave up". hahah, thanks for keeping it real.
Congrats on all your success.
Love you for being so real have a good day mate
Whoop whoop…keep it poppin’ James
The Motivation❤🔥
DOPE SETUP!
Your DJing and music loop creations are sick bro,can you tell me what software or plug ins and OS your using? Who Does This ❤
Always loved MOTU interfaces myself, they just seem to sound pretty clean to me, and the I/O is dope. Had an 828x for years now.
Try RME and you will be very surprised how good they are
Thanks for the Vid, nice I didn't know you have an apartment in Vegas.
Keepin it 💯 JH
Finally someone transparent and honest in the world of music! Best wishes!
That is a sexy good looking studio all around those pmc 6's thats the next monitors Im gonna upgrade to. I looked at a lot of studio monitors and my friend has atmos pmc setup and it sounds so clean just the L/C/R speakers so clean you hear so much more thats worng in a bad mix.
Try Genelec 83X1 smart monitors, they sound amazing and you can use them in any room.
you inspire me everyday
Nice ending ✊🎶🕺🔥
James I love what you said at the end this is so fucking true! It's not about the tools but we all want good tools!
I remember going to my first NAMM show in 2014
PMC speakers Changed my life…first thing I played was “So far to go” by J Dilla. It was a emotional moment for me.
I still have the tea cup they gave me.
This is the video I’ve ever wanted for entire my life…❤

What a top fella
Nice workshop 👍
Love the end 🥰
Bro ended a video the realest way possible! From start to now, he has been a honest dude

Yeeep dale caña!!!!❤❤
Yeah James, nice studio meiner 👍🏼🎶🚀🔥👌🔑🎶🎵🔥👌🙏💕
You made me want to start at nearly 40 something and I have . Thank you so much!
studio parties at yours would be sickk!!
goat things
Nice TD-3
@james we need to speak about turning your packs into self installable Ableton Live ones, just like those from the factory with lessons and stuff….
Laptop + brain. And as we can see following your vlogs: hard work, and true love for music.
You ain’t give no love to that focusrite 18i20 interface lol! That interface is soooo underrated. I love the preamps and work flow of it way better than the Apollo. My apollo 8x just sits there now
Круто ! Братик красавчик ❤❤❤
James is the GOAT
James looking more like THOR in this one
JH is the realest out there! Who does this?
I am surprised James doesn't have any outboard compressors...i mean do yourself a favor and grab some,, and get some Yamaha NS-10's for mix reference...James we all dig you here in the US!
This has to be the best studio run through I’ve ever seen, he doesn’t set up the filming like a documentary like everyone else, he doesn’t pretend like he knows everything about everything he just tells you why he likes the setup, you can see that he’s genuinely excited about his studio, he’s like a kid on Christmas morning 🥹
🔥🔥🔥🔥
this was the best apple macbook commercial i have ever seen...
thanks for that view james!!! so clear and confortable studio vibes men ❤💥💥
I gave up on the RD9 too.
